(Tut) How to get back to stock boot animation.

I see a lot of ppl that are on custom roms that would like stock animation and sound back. So i figured i would share this. I take no credit for this. Im just simply rewriting and summarizing what i found over in the Stratosphere section on rootzwiki. Credit goes to icebear for finding the files and to buffaloquinn for posting what to do with them. You can find that thread here
Download stock files here
In Root Explorer (or other file manager)
Navigate to /system/media/
(change to R/W)
In /system/media/
Rename bootsamsung.qmg -> bootsamsung.bak
Rename bootsamsungloop.qmg -> bootsamsungloop.bak
Copy bootani.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg (from wherever you have them) to the /system/media/ directory
Rename bootani.qmg -> bootsamsung.qmg
In /system/etc/
Replace the PowerOn.wav file with stock Droid version (If your on infinity rom or another rom that doesnt have boot sound. Then just add the wav file to the /system/etc/ directory)
Change back to R/O
Reboot to the Droid animation

Nice job writing it up but lol that dang boot sound is the first thing I kill. I either edit it out or replace it.

Thanks! Sound is optional though. I just figured i would include how to do it all. If anybody doesn't want any sound then just delete the .wav file in the directory.

Im running tweakstock 1.4 and the audio changed but the animation did not

Are you running the latest pbj kernel? If so, go into /system/media and delete "sanim. Zip".

Hey I am running jellybeer v3.54 on galaxy note, N7000.
I just wanted to know if this method will work on it too.
thanks in advance!:good::fingers-crossed:

Well, they're different devices so my tentative answer is no. But we're not going to stop you, so if you want to try it, be my guest. You'd probably get much better feedback in your own forum.

Unfortunately, it didn't work,:crying:
Jellybeer only recognises "bootanimation.zip" file.

Those are universal boot animation type I think. Do a search of the entire site for boot animations.

[MOD]Bootanimation4U - Add custom bootanimation to any rom

This will add the ability to use a custom bootanimation on any rom with any kernel and probably any samsung device.
It has been tested on the Note II but should work with any samsung device that uses samsungani to load boot animations. If it doesn't work for you please post here.
Uses the typical settings bootanimation is at /system/media/bootanimation.zip, this is for those using a stock rom or a rom the dev didn't add it in.
I included the Google Gears bootanimation too. Flash the file in recovery. The attachment is a flashable zip not bootanimation.zip.
The updater-script uses busybox to mount the partitions, so if it doesn't flash correctly install busybox from an app on the play store then try again.
Edited the attachment, now includes the bootanimation binary just in case in bootanimation4u.zip, there is also another one named Bootanimation4U.Samsungani.Only that only edits samsungani.
If /system/bin/bootanimation exists flash the Bootanimation4U.Samsungani.Only.zip
How to use:
Add bootanimation.zip to /system/media
Flash Bootanimation4U.zip in recovery
If you want sound add an ogg file named PowerOn.ogg to /system/media/audio/ui, if sound doesn't work be sure /system/bin/samsungpowersoundplay exists if its there it will play sound if not its not included in your rom download it HERE then put it where it belongs and fix the perms which should be rwxr-xr-x
Reboot...Enjoy
Here is a method to get some bootanimations thanks to ReelFiles:
ReelFiles said:
Awesome!
1. Make a backup just in case.
2. Flash bootanimation4u.zip from recovery (I use TWRP).
3. Reboot and install Boot Animations Root from the Play Store.
4. Go into the app's preferences and change install location to /system/media/ and leave the default filename (bootanimation.zip) and go back to the main screen.
5. Select any bootanimation from the Server tab and hit Install. (Tablet ones at the bottom of the list look best.)
6. Select the installed bootanimation again and hit Resize. Set it to 720x1280 30FPS.
7. Tap the options key and select "Preview current" Make sure you like it and reboot.
I use the Tablet - Shatter one, it looks like the one from the Jedi Roms, but higher quality.
If you Preview a few different ones and then decide to use one you downloaded earlier, delete it first then install and resize it again, or the preview will just be a black screen and might not work at all.
I believe you can preview before installing the animation if you buy the Pro version.

No it only uses busybox to mount system to copy files. It makes it flashable on most devices without using specific blocks. Ie. Mmcblk0p13

Ok, so this will prevent the boot loop caused by adding bootanimation.zip's manually on samsung devices? (vzw gs3 running aosp).
Does the flash of your mod stick between rom flashes, or flash each time?

I don't thing it belongs to development, since the mod is already known and that's why i already posted something like this on General with both methods (manual and CWM)

after flashing bootanimation4u should i see an app in my app tray upon boot up? i don't see an app by that name
I'm using busybox v1.20.2 and it's installed in system/xbin

No app, what rom are you using and what kernel ? Sounds rom/kernel related this should work with no problems. Is there a file called samsungani and bootanimation in system/bin ? And lastly what does it do when it boots ? Black ? Samsung logo ?

[REQ-BOOTANIMATION] Droid X with Sound

Hi all.
I'm looking the bootanimation of Droid X with the sound and in 1080p. Unfortunately, the link in the description no longer works (megaupload link) and I search try desperately another link.
Someone could share this bootanimation with the sound please ?
Thanks.

I don't know about other boot animators, but I haven't been able to get boot sounds working. Supposedly, they have to be supported by the kernel, and the Nexus 5 stock kernel doesn't do it.

Even if the sound does not work, I would like the bootanimation.

http://www.mediafire.com/?qzmdyadynk2
Thats your boot animation. You may have to modify the desc.txt to fit the nexus screen, though.
I wasn't able to find the audio file :/

The animation goes a little too fast but I think it is possible to solve this problems by modifying the desc.txt and making 20 fps, no ?
EDIT : When I change the fps rate, I have no bootanimation lol.

Make sure when you zip it back up, you aren't compressing it by setting compression level to "store".

Also, if your rom currently supports sound in boot animations, I put together a quick sound thats kinda similar. Feel free to use it if you like it.
http://d-h.st/pu2
If not, try google searching for sounds like "startup", "robotic", "initializing", that kinda thing. Maybe you'll find something that fits.
Good luck! hope you get the boot animation you want! :good:

Ive been trying for a good portion of the day to get boot sounds working, and apparently it's a feature that has to be supported by the kernel. Also, the CM team hates it, and would rather boot audio never exist in CM at all. Some users have tried reaching out to the team members for help (and gotten pretty far), but ultimately it looks as though we aren't going to have boot audio in CyanogenMod. Bug report responded to by the man himself here: https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-218
Of course this can change with different ROMs (possibly even Kernels), but i've already tried a couple new kernels as well, and had no luck.
Let me know if you find anything in the future that works for you!

After several searches, I have found for CM11 :/

Yeah I'd love for this boot animation to have sound and run on cm 11
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

hi,i read this thread to add a boot sound with cm11 base rom..
and problem was, as you write,that cm team hates boot sound so it's impossible to add it..
but there was some tricks,as example using /system/bin/stagefright command to start a boot sound creating a simple sh to add in init.d folder (stagefright -a -o powernon.mp3)..with last android 4.3 base seems that stagefright there was in /system/bin
But with my surprise in last cm base roms kk 4.4.2 8 (but also stock roms) stagefright command was deleted by /system/bin so it's impossible use this command to enable boot sound,and i don't know why was removed stagefright..Maybe now in KK roms there is another command that has substitued stagefright command?
PS the only system/bin command that i try to start a boot sound is "media dispatch play" that launch a media player automatically playing last song that you listen to..(try in terminal emulator)
teorically if you create a simple script with this command at boot should be playing last song..
you can try using an app boot shell (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kislay.bootshellcommand&hl=it)
but for me don't work
if you want you can search on Google some sh script (bootsnd.sh) or zip package (CM4DX-Bootsound.zip) where there is this trick..
Maybe someone can explain stagefright command on KK 4.4.2?

[Boot/Shutdown Animation] + EXTRAS - Doctor Who with sound!

Doctor Who Boot/Shutdown animation for the LG G3 with sound!
WARNING
This is a disclaimer: While this has been tested I am not responsible for ANY damage done to your device. I take no responsibility for bootloops, soft bricks, hard bricks, living brick monsters, your phone proving an omnipotent being fallible(thus negating all existence), your great aunt smoking bath salts, flying monkeys, hot pockets, obamacare, dingleberries, carnivorous dingleberries or Sundays. Use at your own risk!!
Secondary disclaimer: If you have carnivorous dingleberries then you have bigger problems to worry about - but for any phone related questions feel free to message me on here either privately or in the thread.
This is my personal bootanimation for the Sprint LG G3 and I thought I would share it with any other Doctor Who fans out there. The original video is not my work, I simply did the leg work to turn it into a bootanimation. Doctor Who and the Tardis are registered trademarks of the BBC. If using the flashable zips, make sure you make a nandroid in TWRP before flashing these just in case. If you want to revert back to your original bootanimation you will have to restore your backup. I hope to make flashable stock zips eventually but until then, restoring your backup is your best option.
*NEW!* FLASHABLE ZIPS!!
Requires root access and TWRP recovery!
Google Drive
Download:LG G3 Bootanimation with sound!
Download:Sprint G3 Bootanimation with sound!
THESE FILES BELOW ARE NOT FLASHABLE ZIPS! Requires root access!! You have to manually put it into your system/media folder and change permissions(-rw-r--r-- aka 644). Also, you will want to delete your old boot animation(make a backup!). The G3 has two bootanimations on Sprint so if you have the same model I do you will want to replace both bootanimation.zip and bootanimation_sprint.zip(Just rename this file and have two copies in system/media). Then manually put Power_On.ogg(Sprint also has two copies of the boot sound so rename a copy of this to PowerOn_Sprint.ogg as well) into system/media/audio/ui for working sound! You ALSO need to either replace the files in carrier/cust/poweron or just delete that folder altogether(That's what I did).
For the shutdown animation it's the same. Replace shutdownanimation.zip(and shutdownanimation_sprint.zip if you are on sprint) and PowerOff.ogg(PowerOff_Sprint.ogg) to have a new shutdown animation with sound.
I believe At&t, Verizon and Tmobile would be easier but have no way of testing. If anyone wants to give detailed directions for the other carriers, it would be greatly appreciated.
Again, make sure you have backups of your original files saved to your computer. For me if something didnt work I would get a black screen but it would still boot. Other phones can soft brick but it looks like the G3 isn't one of em - still, better safe than sorry! I never ask for donations but if you like/use it, you could always hit that thank button!

TARDIS LOCK/UNLOCK SOUNDS!
Below you will find two flashable zip files - one to change your lock sounds to the Tardis, another to change them back to stock. As always my disclaimer is in full effect - make a nandroid backup in TWRP just in case. Simply reboot into TWRP recovery, make a nandroid backup, then install your chosen flashable zip and reboot.

You can search the root partition of your phone and see if those files are anywhere else, then replace them. I know they are in system/media/audio/ui and the carrier/cust/ folders.....I can't remember if they were in system media with the bootanimations as well......
As long as they are in the right places with the right permissions they should work.
Sorry btw, I just saw this.
EDIT: Just realized this was the one I posted in the general forum. I'm on Sprint so I'm not sure where the other carrier's boot sounds are. If you find out which ones they are and what they are named exactly, let me know so I can update the OP.

You're a hero. I just got 2 people to drop their plans to get an Iphone 6 when they saw my phone turn on. Thanks a bunch!

Standard Disclaimer: It's your phone.. If you brick your phone, or it becomes self aware and takes over the world, I am not responsible.
Themed phone/contacts, Messaging, Calendar, and Accuweather. Has been tested on NG2 ROM. There is no fw-res modifications so it should work on any NG2 rom. (Sacs, Triforce, ect).
Thanks to @2WhiteWolves for testing on NAE. The apps work fine (calendar, Accuweather), but the priv-apps (SecPhone, contacts, and messaging) are very buggy and are not recomended for use. Thanks for testing for me.
NOTE: You will no longer have phone/contacts in your drawer. They are now BatPhone/Superfriends.
I will post screenshots in post 2 & 3
Download Link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzpfAdALNa_gQ00wSnphRUlWSEE/view?usp=sharing
There are 2 installation options
Full Installation:
Do a backup prior to flashing this or anything else
No wipe required
1) Download zip, put on phone storage
2)Install zip from SD
3)reboot and enjoy
Partial Installation:
1) Unzip and place wanted apk files on SD card
2) with root explorer, find corresponding apk in system/app or priv-app. rename to .bak EXAMPLE: SecPhone.apk.bak
3)Copy themed apk to proper folder, and set permissions to rw-r-r
4)reboot
If you have any issues you can just delete the themed apk then delete the .bak from the original and you will be back to stock.
Hope you enjoy it.

I just flashed the Joker boot, everything worked start up boot and shutdown boot. Did you go into root explorer to system> media and do bootsamsung.qmg to bootsamsung.qmg.bak and same with bootsamsungloop.qmg to bootsamsungloop.qmg.bak ? This is what I did.
Don't know if that will make a difference or not.
Didn't have to rename or do that sprint specific boot animation.
I am on Odexed (mostly stock) Super S4 1.5 by at g_ding84 and still on bootloader MF9.

I'll rename them then copy and paste them instead of flashing it. See if that works.

It didn't. And what is weird is that after naming them to .bak , the stock animation still works.

That stinks. The same thing happen when I did the SecPhone.apk, I had stock phone.

If you did just the Sec Phone.apk, you would still have the stock phone. The dialer is in SecContacts.apk. The phone apk handles everything after the call is made.

I went through today and kept changing the boot animations to .baking until I didn't have any boot animation. My phone was using the XAS_bootanimation. I don't even know what carrier that is. But it is working now.

Did the SecContacts_OSup.apk, it worked [emoji2] But when I push on the contact pic to get to their info, it goes black and goes back to home page. Maybe it's because I need to do all your theme.?
It's cool that the bat icon shows when you push on the numbers [emoji106].
I might leave it this way till I get to show my nephews.
Edit: Glad you got it going [emoji41] [emoji106]

You don't have to do the whole theme, but SecPhone/SecContacts work together. Having them both might help, or it might just be a little buggy on NAE. Try them together.
Now that I got the boot animation working I changed the boot sound. (It plays Batman Ridin') If you want to try it I attached it. unzip, copy the .ogg and paste it in system/media/audio/ui. It is not a flashable zip.

Tried the sound it worked. Did the SecPhone.apk with the SecContacts_OSup.apk it didn't help. In superfriends sliding to call made the android process stop working, also dialing did same thing. Deleted it and was able to call out again, it also let's me get to text messaging by sliding, does everything except for getting to contact info. The contact pics are still there, plus on the ones that don't have pics with phone #'s show what you did. Noticed in my goggle account everything had synced except for people details. Sorry I'm not on NG2 to actually tell you if things work or not. I'm glad I can show off your work on the SecContacts_OSup.apk. and the sound.
